Mexican Chocolate Cookies

Here is another cookie I am making for the bake sale coming up this Saturday. This is a chewy cookie with a hint of spice. I love the combination of chocolate and cinnamon and the subtle flavor of black and red pepper. You cannot taste the pepper but there is a very slight spicy burn after eating a few of these cookies....and you will want to eat more than one!

4. In a mixer, combine sugar and softened butter; beat until well blended. Add in egg; beat well. Add in cooled chocolate and vanilla; beat until just blended. Add flour mixture and beat until blended together.

5. Drop dough by tablespoons two inches apart on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

6. Bake at 350 degrees F for 10 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool on pan for 2 minutes. Remove from pan and cool completely on wire rack.
